"The Complete 1 2 6 & Taboo Recordings, 1966-68". Hailing from the coldest, northernmost region of Norway, 1 2 6 (One-Two-Six) were inspired by the sounds of the Beatles, the Kinks, the Who and Bob Dylan, but blended these influences with an approach that was distinctly European. The brilliant original songwriting of Asa Krogtoft allied simple beat group arrangements and melodic psychedelic pop with a unique, often surrealistic poetic sensibility. This 28-track CD anthology includes their complete works: the Curtains Falling album, non-LP singles, demos and rarities, and both singles by Asas post-1 2 6 band Taboo, all from the original master tapes. Graveyard Paradise is the first time this material has been released outside of Norway. It includes an amazing array of original music: raw beat group rave-ups, dark folk-rock excursions, post-Revolver/Pepper psychedelic moves, gorgeous orchestrated pop, and heavier freakbeat sounds. The deluxe 16-page CD booklet is loaded with rare pix and full liner notes.
